Retailers start pre-orders on Disney Infinity 3.0 The Force Awakens play-set adventure and figurines. With the upcoming film these are likely to be the most popular of the toys to date.

Now that the Twilight of the Republic and Rise of the
Empire play-set adventures are both released for Disney Infinity 3.o, player's attentions are turning to the next big Star Wars episode for the game, The Force Awakens.

Today Bestbuy.com (and other retailers such as Amazon.com) opened pre-orders on both play-sets and new characters for the adventure. The Force Awakens play-set is listed for $34.99 and the figures are $13.99 each. All the products will be released on 18th December in line with the film release.

The Force Awakens is the next big Star Wars play-set for Disney Infinity bringing new characters Rey, Finn, Kylo Ren and Poe Dameron. As you can see the figures all share the same style of base, indicating their compatibility with The Force Awakens play-set without the need to collect cross over coins.

As detailed by Disney in its press release, "Playable characters include Finn, a soldier on a path to adventure and danger, and Rey, a true survivor who is resourceful and capable. Both will join Poe Dameron, the trusted pilot of the Resistance who uses his expert flying skills to travel the galaxy, and Kylo Ren, an enforcer for the First Order who terrorises the galaxy with devious acts."

In addition to the characters native to Star Wars: The Force Awakens Play Set, fans will also be able to unlock and play with all other Star Wars characters from other Star Wars Play Sets from Star Wars™ Twilight of the Republic and Star Wars™ Rise Against The Empire, as well as the Star Wars™ Rebels characters.

To use characters from other eras of Star Wars in The Force Awakens you will need to collect these coins in the game first. Still, this is a nice way for families to get extra value from their existing collection of Star Wars characters in the new game.

Also listed are the power discs for The Force Awakens. Here though the image has been blanked out in key parts to ensure that the toys do not give away any details of the upcoming film. More details are available on Amazon that lists the following features:

Finns Stormtrooper Costume

Poe's Resistance Jacket

Also recently announced for Disney Infinity 3.0 was the Marvel Battleground play-set although this won't be coming until 2016. This offers four player cooperative play in the campaign -- unlike the Star Wars adventures that are only 2 player.
